mulch at least twice per week.
Summer and autumn:
mulch at least once per week.
11.1 Starting the engine
● Press motorstop lever (1) to the
handlebar and hold.
● Slowly pull out recoil starter rope (2) to
the point of compression resistance.
Then pull vigorously and quickly to
arm’s length. Slowly return recoil starter
rope (2) so that it is rolled up again.
Repeat the procedure until the engine
starts.

behind the handlebar when starting the
engine and when the engine is running.
Always observe the safety distance
provided by the handlebar.
● The lawn mower must only be operated
by one person. Other persons must
keep out of the danger area. (Ö 4.)

11. Operating the machine
Avoid damage to the machine!
Do not start the engine in tall grass
or at the lowest cutting height. This
makes starting difficult.
